Managing Model Objects › Model Object Lists › Example

Example

Suppose you need to regenerate all external functions that use model objects contained in the session list. You can produce a list of these functions by using the Display Model Usages (YDSPMDLUSG) command. The following command creates a model object list (list-name) consisting of all model objects that use any object contained on your default model list (*MDLPRF), up to and including the first external function:

YDSPMDLUSG  MDLLST(*MDLPRF)+
 OUTPUT(*MDLLST)+
 OUTMDLLST(list-name)+
 SCOPE(*EXTFUN)

You can then convert the resulting output list to a job list for generation and compilation using the Convert Model List (YCVTMDLLST) command.

The following are more examples of ways you can use session lists with model list commands:

• Produce a printed record of changes to your model for a specific development project by using the session list for the project as input to the Document Model Object List (YDOCMDLLST) command.
• Flag selected entries on the session list to copy using the Filter Model Object List (YFLTMDLLST) command or Edit Model Object List for copy (YEDTCPYLST) panel. Then promote the change to a target model by using the session list as input to the Copy Model Objects (YCPYMDLOBJ) command.
• Delete a session list related to a completed development project by using the Delete Model Object List (YDLTMDLLST) command.
• Create an empty session list by using the Index Model Object List (YINXMDLLST) command.
